As I bid farewell to the Emerald Isle

Image
It has been an excitingly incredible journey. My 10-week period of stay is filled with adventures of a lifetime. Knowing Frits is an amazing memory. He is a man of wise, experienced and honest character. He teaches me not to give up and to give it all. To test yourself to the limit, he also put me in a situation where I am at peace with myself. He opens my eyes that I am a beautiful lady, being that deserves everything that I deserve. I deserve to be happy and because I am keen, he says I should demand a man in an equally stable relationship. This is for future reference. Anyhow, I feel sad to leave him but we will surely keep in touch. Hope so. Friends (now family), To say I know you is a false claim. I don't and won't know you until we spend a 24-7 together. If I were given a chance, I would do Ireland all over again with both of you. I love you and I know you love me too. You are so precious to me. Now, let's get home. Leaving Ireland for London, Syzurya, 29 A...

Officially a traveller

Assalamualaikum. As I'm reaching 23, I now finally acknowledge myself as a traveller. I am a traveller of the world. Just listing out a few countries I've been to : - Arab Saudi (Mekah & Madinah), 2004 - Indonesia (Bukit Tinggi), 2012 - Cambodia (Pursat & Phnom Penh), 2013 - Japan (Tokyo, Kawaba, Asakusa & Shibuya), 2015 - Hong Kong (at least 2 hours of flight transit), 2017 - United Kingdom (London for 28 hours but I'll say the amazing 28 hours), 2017 - Ireland, 2017 My passport is an incredible album of my journey. Stamped somewhere in there were the moments of my life. If the incident that I almost went to China alone for a conference in 2016 had happened, then another one would be on that list. This is another story not worth being told due to the ignorance of the educational institute. I cannot say that I am not proud of myself for Ireland. I am proud of myself because I had the courage, took all the effort and went bravely. Despite all, I went....

Here at the emerald land

Assalamualaikum. It has been more than two weeks since I left Malaysia. I still don't know whether to be happy about it or to be sad or whatever. Ireland has been unwelcoming ever since the first day we arrived. The February weather was tremendously extreme. One moment it was sunny and the next it was raining, hailing and storming. The skin on my hand showed traces of burning due to the abnormal humidity. When the sun was out, I really felt like finishing the whole load of work. However when the weather was low, we only felt tired for doing work indoor. Yep, this is winter here. On the other hand, the place for internship is very unlikely as what I imagined. Actually, I didn't really have the time to imagine anything (due to the whole week of rushing everything before flying). Although two weeks have passed, I still have the fresh thought of every single thing happening before coming here. It happened horribly. I learnt my lessons well. Though the real project hasn't st...
